I have the 4 Alta lights two running 55w and two running 100w
6 auxiliary gauges (4 on the A pillar and two under the center stack)
My alternator is running strong, but I also have an Optima Yellow Top.

You ***should*** be safe, but every car is different.

Take this advise to be a safe observation from what I have experienced...this is not and should not be taken as Gospel.
